Almonds are a great source of calcium as well as being rich in monounsaturated fats (like those found in olive oil). They help keep levels of bad LDL- cholesterol down. Plus, they boast good amounts of the antioxidant vitamin E and an amino acid arginine, both of which work to keep blood vessels clear of fatty plaques that may otherwise cause blockages. Almonds are also a good source of magnesium , zinc and potassium which make blood vessels more elastic and help control blood pressure. Research shows almond skin is an excellent source of a large number of antioxidants known as flavonoids (like those found in tea). These antioxidants work together with the vitamin E in almonds to give even greater protection to your heart and blood vessels.
Walnuts are an excellent source of omega-3 essential fatty acids, a special type of protective fat the body cannot manufacture. Reports indicate that walnuts are also great for heart health as they help lower the bad LDL cholesterol.
Pepitas (pumpkin seeds kernals) - these seeds are a great source of iron, zinc, magnesium, manganese, and monounsaturated fat. There is evidence that they have been used to help treat prostate cancer, eliminate parisites in the intestines and treat kidney problems.
Sunflower seeds contain vitamin E which plays an important role in the prevention of cardiovascular disease. They also contain the most complete amino acid profile and have been found to be the easiest of nuts and seeds to digest, especially when soaked and dehydrated for people with compromised digestion (most people these days). So they're a pretty amazing seed in their own right
Goji Berries have a cherry-like taste, with 21 minerals, super high Vitamin C, Vitamin A, complete protein (18 amino acids) AND an ORAC (anti-oxidant ) score of 25,300 !! (for comparison, blueberries score 2400, green tea 1686, and broccoli 890) they are a valuable addition to this tasty snack
Raw Cacao Nibs are a source of beta-carotene, amino acids (protein), Omega-3 EFA's, calcium, zinc, iron, copper, sulphur, potassium, and one of the best food sources of muscle relaxing, stress relieving magnesium – now you know why women crave chocolate every month! This is pure chocolate (no processed sugar, no bad fats), with the sweetness of the sultanas and goji berries along with the creaminess of the cashews and other nuts and seeds, it like pure chocolate in your mouth! - with no guilt!
Raw Cashews contain magnesium, essential for strong bones.
